Same here!
I'm a part time pro photographer and I always have to justify why I went for Pentax instead of Canikon. I usually answer ergonomics, affordable weather sealed glass and bodies and affordable but ultra good optics.
Everytime I get some place where there's many photographers, I usually end up being the only one using the K-mount brand! ;)
That said, I'm now considering very seriously going for a D300s or 7D. The IQ will be almost similar, but the AF performance will be much better and the K-7 is starting to hinder my shooting possibilities, especially in the AF departement.
A camera is a tool... if a Pentax fits your need better, why even argue about your choice? I mean, some professionals use Holga and one-time use disposable camera to get certain moods for their photos, photos which make it into nation-wide advertisement campaigns! Next time people ask me what brand I use, I'll say Kodak one-time use cameras! :lol:
So the %$#! with the brand... It's the photographer's talent that matters.
However the good thing is, if I switch to Canon or Nikon, I won't have to justify myself anymore! :lol:
